SEINFELD
Season 3
With Jerry Seinfeld, Jason Alexander, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Michael Richards
Directed by Tom Cherones, David Steinberg, Joshua White
If you're unfamiliar with this TV series, you certainly missed out on
a piece of the '90s and TV history. But, now's your chance to catch
up and get turned on to this revolutionary comedy series which defied
the format. Seinfeld pretty much played himself, also a stand-up comic
in the show, bits of club based routine opening and closing each episode
(plus bits in between), mostly relating to subjects cropping up in the
show. George is the neurotic incompetent, Elaine the girl in the gang
who's pretty much one of the guys and Kramer the mad neighbour (adding
physical comedy to the smart verbal quips). The 22 shows of Season 3
include The Note, The Parking Garage, The Pez Dispenser, The Subway,
The Keys and the two part Boyfriend episodes. Never before has personal
hang-ups, quirks, menial daily activity and sitting around talking crap
been so brilliantly utilized for comedic effect. The substantial load
of extras on all of the season releases include interviews with all
the key players, commentary tracks, deleted scenes, notes, inside looks,
outtakes, photo galleries and web links, plus additional stand-up bits
from Jerry. This 3rd season release also includes a piece on Kramer's
origin. Some people were aghast at the million-dollar payday Jerry Seinfeld
eventually received per episode, but with the global popularity of the
show, why not? I have to add, I do love good packaging. These compact
4-disc releases slide in & fold out with images of our favourite New
Yorkers Jerry, Elaine, Kramer and George all over the place. This is
also my first encounter with a new space saving twin disc storing technique,
which has two discs overlapping.
